They are not being deported they are being repatriated---sent home

A voice of sanity amongst the babble.

Words MEAN things.

Let us take a page from the Dutch and 'repatriate' all those who need it.

Way to go Dutch!

[fish hawk]

Why can't we? because we are P.C. overloaded.

[technomage]

NO matter what they say in public, the European politicos see what is happening with the huge influx of immigrants, mainly from Islamic countries.

This is only the beginning, and will pale in comparison to what comes in the next few years, in my opinion. Like it or not, a culture war is about to break out.

[knighthawk]

Thanks for the ping. The left is going crazy over all this. But the minister is determined to go on.

But the minister is determined to go on

Good for him. However, it may be too little too late.

Good thing for him Kerry isn't in the Whitehouse we'd be threatening sanctions on the Dutch.

Who am I fooling, we may do that anyway.

[SandRat]

Because we have the HilleryRats. Went to the Netherlands, Amsterdam to be specific and the Dutch used a rather course English word that rhymes with Malukins, a former Dutch Colony, to describe the very group that they are now about to deport.

Funny, even the Euro-Socialists are beginning to get the idea what needs to be done to survive.

[oldironsides]

France is having a huge problem. They are facing down an Islamic population that is growing and they will not be kept in place by silly laws about head coverings. The place to start was with a reasonable immigration policy. It is too late for France. They do not have the backbone to do what needs to be done.

[neutrino]

We could take a lesson from the Dutch...especially if we increased the numbers by at least two orders of magnitude!

[LoudRepublicangirl]

They'll end up over here in the U.S. since we tend to take everybody and their grandma.

[CIBvet]

The choice we're offered is going off the cliff w/ the GLOBALIST D's at 180mph, or going off the same cliff w/ the GLOBALIST R's at 120.

As far as I'm concerned, I'm gettin tired of the NON-(Constitutional) choice, and I'm not gettin any younger so ....

[riri]

I am all for it. In fact, I hope it starts a trend.

[riri]

Some people make it seem as if all this is done randomly, as if the Netherlands is sinking into some 1930s Nazi-Germany politics

Ofcourse they do. Remember what we did to Austria in, was it, 1999 when Haiger's party looked like they were going to take over? I don't know his complete politics but I know he spoke heavily against the over-foreignization of Austria. They made him out to be the next Hitler and we all formed a coalition to get Austria back on the socialist, national-suicide path.

Repatriation Now!

[citizen]

They made him [Haiger] out to be the next Hitler and we all formed a coalition to get Austria back on the socialist, national-suicide path.

I remember that, it was made to sound like a bunch of skinheads had had a successful coup.

How's the climate for a second try?

"They do not have the backbone to do what needs to be done."

I think that you are right. The French are a strange bunch. I was there for about a year and a half in the late fifties. My wife, my daughter and I were there for a week in the early seventies. Not much had changed.

In the fifties, there was an active communist party. As a result, Americans were despised. Not being present for more than a week in the early seventies did not allow me to form much of an opinion, but I detected much of the same attitude toward Americans. For example, during the late afternoon of the last day of our visit, we decided to pick up some little gifts for friends. I noticed that there were a number of souvenir shops just below the Champs near the garden of the Tuleries. We went into one of the shops which was attended by a single lady. Wanting to inquire about some of the merchandise there, I said "Parle vous engle, madame?" (Do you speak English, madam?) Her very terse reply was, "Vous parle Francais, Monsieur!" (You speak French, Sir!) I looked at my wife and jokingly remarked, "This lady doesn't realize that I just expended 95% of my French vocabulary."

In spite of the rudeness, though, I did detect compassion. We were traveling around Paris in the Metro one day and my daughter (about 6 years of age at the time) was in serious need of a potty break. A lady who tended one of the ticket booths saw my little daughter's dance of desperation and beckoned to me. I went to the window and she handed me a key to what was obviously an employees' restroom. I thanked her as well as I could in my rather limited French.

I think that there is goodness and reasonableness there. It has simply been subdued by bad politics.

"It's quite interesting that in Holland (and elsewhere), gays are some of the first to speak up about the inherent problems of Islamic immigration."

Entirely predictable. Gays simply realize they will be the first to be oppressed under Islamic Law, followed by women, dissidents, etc. The Left will be slower to get it as always, but once they find their cherished free-speech being cut down by the new ruling Dutch mullahs they might clue in.

I was in Holland two years ago (going back for a vacation in a couple months). There was an Islamic cleric on TV being interviewed by some Lefty "journalist" preaching death to gays and other infidels. The interviewer just sat there nodding his head, seemingly chalking it up to "cultural differences" that need to be accepted. It was Leftism on display....
